Redditors Vent and Complain When People Mock Their "AI Art"

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Sometimes I think we could get to a point where nothing new is created. Like, if everyone is just using prompts and profiting from other people's work without consent, and this is more lucrative than creating content yourself, what's the point in creating new things?
I don't know how to put this without sounding alarmist, but I fear we might be heading towards a halt in creativity. Trying to come up with something fresh will become less rewarding, so we'll be feeding from the same source material over and over again.
It's always been that "there is little new under the sun." Whether it's math, science, or the arts, the "new" is all built on what went before. It's all just incremental and very often what was old is now new again.
AI might be good a copying, but the desire to create and destroy is a human drive. It will remain and find a way.
People will always want to create, but if they can't make a living creating, that's going to put a roadblock in their artistic development, because they won't be able to dedicate themselves to it full time.
